March 12, 201511 yr comment_145767 The Fox and McPhee signings took awhile to become official as well. Could just be Pace's way of doing things, I guess. I wondering if they just want to stretch things out. We sign McPhee for 40 million to be our stub lb. Boom. That's our major signing and the big story. We have the press conference with Fox and Pace. I expect another press conference tomorrow where we introduce Royal, Rolle . . . and a 3rd person yet to be named. Guys we are signing for something in the range of 3 years--9 million. Report

March 12, 201511 yr comment_145784 Surprised to see 3 years, but the money isn't bad at all. Just 5M guaranteed. Report

We have the press conference with Fox and Pace. I expect another press conference tomorrow where we introduce Royal, Rolle . . . and a 3rd person yet to be named. Guys we are signing for something in the range of 3 years--9 million. Ok, for that press conference I mentioned, we now have Royal and Rolle . . . do we get Parker to be the mysterious 3rd man? I predicted 3 years 9 million, I was close with Rolle in 3 years 11.25 (with 5 guaranteed.) He's the big thumper Fangio likes. After 6 million for signing drafted players, we had roughly 25 million available. I'm guessing these 3 signings take up 15 of that (although we can structure it a million different ways.) Report

March 12, 201511 yr comment_145816 Low risk signing, only 2.5m cap hit for this year. For this reason I like the signing. Oh, and Conte being back with Lovie is just a cherry on top of the sundae. Report

March 13, 201511 yr Author comment_145950 Thanks Orbitz: I just asked God—it was Sunday night before I was going to sleep—I just asked him, "God, I pray that you just give me a level head. I pray that you just give me a sign to lead me in the right direction, and I'll follow your lead." It was Monday morning at 4:33 a.m. I never wake up in the middle of the night, and it was 4:33 Monday morning, and I got an email to my phone. And the email said, "Orbitz alert: flights to Chicago, discount fair." And I'm like, "wow," you know what I mean? Report
